A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

Dr.Oz is a highly praised cardiothoracic surgeon. I wouldn’t say he’s grossly incompetent but he’s certainly not qualified for the job. Trump sees celebrity and success as qualifying attributes for his appointees, but this neglects all the people behind the scenes that support these talking heads. Paperwork, employees, press releases, social media… Oz didn’t do that shit. He shows up, stands on his mark and reads from a teleprompter.

Now, these chicklefucks are expected to create policy, stand in front of live media, and answer questions as world leaders!?
